For those who loved Holly McQueen's
The Glamorous (Double) Life of Isabel Bookbinder, here's some
good news – Isabel's back!
Yep, the funny, ditzy daydreamer (who yes, I'll agree, is a lot like Shopaholic's Becky Bloomwood) is returning for a sequel, The Fabulously Fashionable Life of Isabel Bookbinder, due to be released this April.
Last time Isabel, determined to become a famous novelist, spent so much time daydreaming about becoming a rich author that she forgot to do what novelists do. You know, writing an actual book.
However, this time around Isabel has traded in her writing dreams for new aspirations in the fashion world. For more info, read on after the cut...
When aspiring designer Isabel Bookbinder bags a job with Nancy 'Fashion Aristocracy' Tavistock, she's sure her career is finally on track. Dazzlingly glamorous, this is a career that she can feel truly passionate about - after all, she knows her Geiger from her Louboutin, her Primark from her Prada, and she's always poring over fashion magazines. Well, ok, the fashion pages of heat. So, learning from the very best, the future's looking bright for Isabel Bookbinder: Top International Fashion Designer. Within days she's putting the final touches to her debut collection, has dreamt up a perfume line, Isabelissimo, and is very nearly a friend of John Galliano. And on top of that she might even have fallen in love. Yet nothing ever runs smoothly for Isabel, and fabulously fashionably as her life is, it soon seems to be spiraling a little out of her control.
